As sunspots emerge on the sun's surface close to its equator, their orientations will match the old magnetic field, while ...

In one study, aluminum samples with ferromagnetic inclusions exhibited up to a 20% increase in creep after being subjected to a magnetic field prior to mechanical loading. This effect was linked ...

Scientists released an update to a model that maps the ever-moving pole and has significant implications for navigation ...

Chorus waves are mysterious, chirping signals produced by spiraling plasma inside our planet's magnetic field. But a new ...

A massive and evolving weak spot in Earth’s magnetic field, known as the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), has caught the ...

Chinese researchers detected audible electromagnetic waves over 62,000 miles from Earth in a region where they weren't ...

Your navigation system just got a critical update, one that happens periodically because Earth’s magnetic north pole keeps moving. Here’s what to know.

The effects of a coronal mass ejection—a bubble of plasma that bursts from the sun’s surface—will likely impact Earth’s ...

Earth’s magnetic north is not static. Like an anchorless buoy pushed by ocean waves, the magnetic field is constantly on the move as liquid iron sloshes around in the planet’s outer core.

Topological insulators (TIs) are among the hottest topics in condensed matter physics today. They're a bit strange: Their ...
